In this video, my brothers
2
and I will be transforming one sweet grandma's old leaking home into a beautiful safe place she can finally enjoy again.
3
Completely free.
4
Here's how it all started.
5
Our friend Sunny went to give her a quote for the gutters.
6
But after seeing the condition of her home and realizing she couldn't afford the repairs, I felt so bad because I couldn't afford him.
7
He reached out to us asking if there's any way we could help her out.
8
We said yes.
9
So the very next morning, we packed our tools and drove straight to her home, ready to surprise her and fixed everything completely free.
10
She has no idea we are here.
11
So let's make this the best day of her life.
12
At first, we thought it would be a simple job.
13
Just a few gutters and a small repairs.
14
Something that shouldn't take us more than half day.
15
But when we got there, we quickly realized things were much worse than we expected.
16
The problems went way beyond gutters, the washroom was leaking, softening fascia were rotting, and everything around the house was falling apart.
17
Oh, look at those, huh?
18
What started as a simple gutter job turned into something we never expected.
19
And by the end, we had to make one of the hardest decisions we ever faced do we just fix the gutters
20
and walk away or stay and change her life whatever
21
in just a few seconds we are going to knock on her door and completely change her day let's go
22
oh hello sir how are you i'm okay how are you

65

66
Linda looks completely overwhelmed, but still doesn't know the real reason why we showed up today.
67
And we can't wait to see her reaction once we tell her we are replacing the gutters completely free.
68
Oh, this is so beautiful.
69
Oh my God, thank you.
70

71
What did the dog do?

75
Oh my God.
76
I've actually got wasted storage.
77
Oh my God.
78
Is it a big dog?
79
No, well, it's a puppy.
80
He's in his crate.
81
We just lost our 14 year old dog two days ago.
82
Oh.
83
Yeah.
84
Anyway, we have not been locked here lately, my dear.
85
Uh-huh.
86
I had mold in my bathroom.
87
Uh-huh.
88
The floor is dug out.
89
And we can't get it back.
90
We gotta pull up the bathtub.
91
We can't do that.
92
But anyway, here's where I left.
93
There's the problem.
94
It leaks there right here.
95
These are plastic, huh?
96
Yeah, we see a lot of water.
97
What kind of price would you do for that, my love?
98
So, reason why we're here today is because Sonny told us he was here yesterday.
99
Oh, was that one of you guys?
100
Sonny, he's our friend.
101
He's our friend, yeah.
102
Yeah.
103
Oh, who he is? So.
104
Nice guy here.
105
Yeah.
106
So he told us, listen, he called and says that I met this senior couple.
107
They're really kind people.
108
And if you guys want to help, I think you should go help them. So...
109
Wow!
110
So we're gonna do it for free.
111
What? For free?
112
Absolutely free, yeah.
113

I can't remember the last time I got flowers.
122
You guys are awesome.
123
I got two flowers last time.
124
What do you say?
125
I don't remember you got me and so on.
126
I watch you guys on TV.
127
I keep telling people there's no way that God has been there.
128
I don't remember you got me and so on.
129
I watch you guys on TV.
130
I keep telling people there's no way that God has been there.
131
There's no way that God is not in their lives.
132
They're angels.
133
Honest God, you guys are angels.
134
Thank you so much.
135
And three brothers to stick together.
136
God love you.
137
Yeah.
138
God bless you.
139
The sweetest people in the world.
140
And you're gonna do it for free.
141
I don't believe it.
142
Absolutely.
143
But just that section, I don't want you guys to put yourself in.
144
No, no. We're gonna place, we saw there's damage at the front there.
145
These, the ones you have are four inch steel, really old ones, rusting the one we're gonna put out like
146
that five inch aluminum you know we're gonna replace all the guys on the house what can we do for you
147
god bless you yeah come here this is our friend he lives with us uh-huh he's 80 years old John,
148
remember the guys I told you I watched on TV?
149
The brothers?
150
That's them.
151
That is them.
152
Nice to meet you John.
153
Yeah, I don't believe the guys are here.
154
Yeah, we've been going through hell lately.
155
We had to dig up everything for mold.
156
And we sprayed them all because we couldn't afford these guys.
157
So we dug up the floor now, we can't get the floor down.
158
But you gotta get another board.
159
It was leaking the house?
160
In the bathroom upstairs.
161
You can see.
162
But it was damaged.
163
This is where we realized this house needed a lot more than just new gutters.
164
So make sure to stick around till the very end, because you'll see exactly why this community is one of the best online communities out there,
165
and how it's making a real difference in people's lives.
166
I don't know what to say.
167
Thank you Lord for these guys.
168
Our pleasure Linda.
169
Linda, you were such a kind, Landy, and Sonny wasn't lying.
170
We are glad we show up today.
171
I felt so bad because I couldn't afford him.
172
Because I want you guys so much over and over and over and over.
173
And you make so many elderly couples so happy that can't afford it, you know?
174
Yeah.
175
And you're just amazing.
176
Thank you.
177
You're welcome.
178
And I hope everybody sees you here and wants you to do jobs.
179
We leave some music with you, so if somebody asks you, he can refer.
180
Leave me a bunch.
181
Yeah, yeah.
182
I'll give it to everybody.
183
Yeah, okay.
184
Sounds good.
185
Oh, yes, I would.
186
So, Nathim, we're gonna go outside, start preparing ourselves.
187
Any questions you guys have, let us know.
188
We'll be here for next four or five hours.
189
I've got no questions, I just want to thank you.
190
In the bottom of my heart.
191
How many you guys are?
192
Oh, it's our pleasure.
193
Our pleasure.
194
Our pleasure.
195
Thank you so much.
196
All these problems began today.
197
The leaking, all that stuff.
198
No worry.
199
Oh my god, that would be so good.
200
I'm tired of going in there and getting my head soaked from the water, from the snow and from the rain.
201
They are really old.
202
And probably like icicles in the winter here.
203
Yes, because of plastic, right?
204
I still can't get old, but I can't.
205
I have to go back up on the internet and watch you again and say, They're here!
206
I don't believe it they're here!
207
You guys are so awesome!
208
Okay, yeah, let's go Linda, we're gonna go start with you, okay?
209
Okay, bye darling, thank you, God bless you guys!
210
God bless!
211
It's time to get to work and check off the first mark on our list, replacing those old gutters.
212
But we already know, we are not stopping here and this is going to be a full transformation for this family.
213
None of this will be possible without you guys.
214
You're the reason why we can go to families like this, look them in the eyes and tell them you don't have to worry no more.
215
So now, let's not waste time and get to work.
216
Okay let's go all the way up.
217
There is a sign of raccoons here.
218
Here are some raccoons issues as well.
219
Okay, we got solar on this side.
220
The roof is in really good condition.
221
But let's get together on this side.
222
This is the worst part where they have the most leaks.
223
These plastic ones right here.
224
They're so small.
225
They're plastic.
226
And there's a connection right here where it's leaking.
227
So let's get rid of these plastic ones.
228
Okay, so here we are.
229
You guys ready?
230
Ready.
231
You guys ready?
232
Let's go.
233
Okay, we're
234
gonna remove now this one, front one.
235
Okay, go to the level.
236
Hey, be careful, stay me tight here.
237
Okay, this one is out.
238
Okay, we got a half of it off.
239
Stefane, so far so good.
240
Just wait for Monchilo and go and move from that side.
241
Last one.
242
Let's go.
243
Okay, buddy.
244
Hello, Jules.
245
Okay.
246
It is a little bit tight.
247
Careful.
248
Okay, so these branches here are blocking our axis to take off the old gutter.
249
And also all the leaves are blocking the gutter as well.
250
We're just going to trim it right now.
251
Now we have watches to take out the...
252
...hold gas.
253
You see guys how the leaves was coming here.
254
Everything is clocked.
255
Slogan, let's go.
256
Brav!
257
Yeah, yeah, yeah!
258
Okay.
259
Yes, let me.
260
The control is holding the nose.
261
They are holding together.
262
Here was the leak.
263
Yeah, that's actually.
264
Yeah, somebody put silicone here.
265
There's a small section still left, so let's take that off and we're done with the demo.
266
Yeah, this one is a little bit.
267
Yeah, yeah.
268
Okay, we got one more piece.
269
Pass me this one.
270
Okay.
271
Is it anything?
272
No, it's not a small piece.
273
There's another small piece here.
274
Monshu, you got it off?
275
Perfect.
276
Thank you.
277
Pass here.
278
Okay, perfect.
279
Okay, that's it.
280
We are good to go.
281
Okay.
282
Everything is done.
283
Okay, demo is done.
284
And now we're gonna measure the new gutters.
285
Let's clean the roof before.
286
Okay, let's do that first.
287
Blow all the dust.
288
Thank you.
289
Okay guys,
290
let's chop it up these old gutters.
291
Super rustic.
292
Okay.
293
Okay, that's the measure.
294
I got it.
295
Let's go.
296
Okay, let's measure the first one.
297
12 feet, 6 inches.
298
12 feet, 6 feet, 8 inches.
299
Let's measure the downpipe.
300
The pipe is gonna be 1 foot 2 and a half inches.
301
Because we have to add the right to the inch.
302
Okay, now you should be careful there there.
303
So you guys can see all the water marks here right where the palia door is
304
and those all coming from the gutter up there.
305
You can also see all the stains and the socket and all the damage it caused.
306
So this is especially hazardous in the winter time
307
because all the water collecting here was creating into ice
308
and making it hard for Linda to come out of the to her backyard.
309
Let's put the holders, the batters.
310
Stefan, the Hawkeye.
311
They won't show the blazer.
312
Okay, let's set up the coil for the batters.
313
Let's see the color, Stefan.
314
Which color is it?
315
We choose, I mean to choose brown.
316
Tesla brown.
317
Perfect.
318
Okay, Miloš, press the button.
319
Let's do it!
320
Time to roll out the first one.
321
12 feet, 6 inches.
322
Six right here, perfect.
323
Okay, first one done.
324
Let's open the hole for the downspout.
325
Beautiful hand cap, perfect, let's stick it.
326
One, two on each side.
327
Okay, let's put the brackets, every two feet.
328
Okay, last one.
329
Okay guys,
330
time to start pulling the new batteries.
331
What a difference.
332
You're all the way up?
333
Don't push it, yeah.
334
Only half the bits.
335
What is this guy doing on the roof with no bits?
336
I don't know.
337
Push it all the way up.
338
Up?
339
Yeah.
340
For a sec.
341
The pipe is right here, right?
342
So you have to screw it with the pipe is first and then lift the corner a little bit up.
343
And then lift a little bit there.
344
Beautiful boys.
345
Here, let's put the leather down.
346
Okay Milosh is coming on the leather bringing the last piece.
347
Are you ready Momcho?
348

352
We're gonna invite you, Linda, in like five minutes, once we finish to...
353

You guys are in.
361
Okay time for second one.
362
Okay everyone we finished the gutters.
363
Everything except the big gutter in the back.
364
And that's because we have one more surprise for Linda gonna replace the soffit there as well
365
because it doesn't look really well
366
but that's not everything we have also another surprise John mentioned how there's a lot of overgrowth
367
and benches leaving leaning over the roof so tomorrow

402

403
so you see this big piece right here yeah that's the
404
piece that's supposed to go in the back where you had the plastic one
405
that was leaking the most right yeah the reason we didn't put it
406
because we noticed also soft face there looks kind of faded changed color a lot of damages there
407
so we want to come back tomorrow
408
and also replace soft face in the back there as well
409
oh my god yeah just to make everything perfect okay you're
410
so sweet and also maybe you're noticing how we're missing a down pipe here yeah you know that's why
411
that's because we also noticed there's a lot of voluntary trees, branches leaving over.
412
So tomorrow when we come back to put the softy fascia, we're also gonna do a full cleanup of your backyard.
413
Trim everything out, cut everything out, just complete cleanup.
414
You're kidding.
415
Yeah, we're gonna do that.

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?
Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
